I completely agree. It seems like a no-brainer to do this with Minimates.

Before anyone accuses me of saying this because of recent posts, you can go back and see where I stood on the Bobby issue earlier. This change is hugely disappointing for me.

I'm honestly sorry, Tetton. I knew somebody was going to be disappointed either way, and while I'm sure you won't believe me, I'm not glad it was you.

Thank you. I'm going to issue a backhanded apology for our exchange earlier. I know tone is difficult to read online, but I truly felt you were being condescending and speaking down to me in your posts, to which I reacted. There are quite a few things that set me off, but the biggest is when someone speaks to me like I'm stupid. That's how I felt, so I apologize for my reaction. So, when can we expect a classic Bobby?

Zach's tone with me today was not misunderstood. As I said earlier I'm not the only person on this board who's felt this way before.

Then leave Zach. I'd rather not have a rude ass here anyway, representative of the company or not.

Now how soon can we get an authentic classic version? (I know; "Ask DST!")

Not sure if you're joking or not, but I think Zach said earlier in this thread that the chances of another Bobby Drake were very unlikely.

...You know this isn't my personal inbox, right? No need to post it four times.

Yes, I do. I'd appreciate a less condescending tone since I waited two weeks before I asked again and then another week after that to ask again. I intended to keep asking until I got a response.

I check New Content almost daily, and go through every thread that appears on the first page. But clearly, I haven't been back to this thread, so it must have gotten bumped to page two each time. Very strange. May have to do with when you're posting.

Please let me know the best time for me to post, in case I ever decide to bother you with a question again.

Do you think there's a chance you're taking this a little too seriously?

Not really. As others on here have stated before, Zach and his defenders have a tendency to be rude quite frequently on here towards others. I haven't really spoken out on it before, but his response today was the last straw with me.

Zach, any idea when we'll know the final decision? This debate and issue need to be out to rest.

And from my perspective you don't get to 59 series of Marvel Minimates by intentionally letting minor errors slip through because a few consumers accept it.

Except it's not an error. The figure was designed from provided artwork, a design approved by Marvel, a figure painted to look like the art and approved as a painted prototype. And the sample matches it exactly. What people here want (and I understand why they do) is an UPDATE to a finished, approved, accurate-to-art-provided figure.

I didn't fall over myself to request a change earlier because, while it could be MORE accurate based on new artwork, it would be extra work for an already busy design team, and another round of approvals for both us and Marvel. ANXM sells well, I believe, but I think many customers will be in the "not aware of the exact costume details" camp.

^This. So, Zach, when are we gonna have a final decision on this?

Waiting to hear if we caught it in time.

Any idea when that will be though?

Any word on the Bobby Drake situation, Zach?

Still wondering if you know what's up with Bobby Drake, Zach...

My guess is it will be a "when he knows something, he'll post" kind of situation...remember, Zach's involved with the marketing side of Minimates, not the production end.

Ok. I'd at least expect the courtesy of replying to ONE of my posts with a "don't know anything yet," if that's the case.

Do we want to live in a world where we have two Shatterstars and no Siryn?

No Siryn? No freakin' Banshee!

Oh, hell yeah. I was just sticking with the X-Force theme.

Who ever believed we'd live in a world where we'd have multiple Shatterstars to choose from? Not to mention Cannonballs? CRAZYPANTS!

I'm super excited. Now I just hope we can get a two pack with Siryn, Rictor, or Sunspot. Or Gideon cause why not?

If that is legit, at least you can buy one case and be sure to get them all.

And for only three times the price of ordering a full non-blind bagged wave from Luke! What a bargain!

Any word on the Bobby Drake situation, Zach?

Just take that arnie jacket. Take a normal black shirt part , plus pants , wolvies head and paint a little white strip. Literally the easiest custom!

Anyone have a spare Arnold?

Worst comes to worst, DST could do a Phoenix Cyclops fix later down the road with another Wolverine (lol), if not, scalpel and pain the cut portion of the release jacket.

I suggested this same thing. Zach said to ask DST.

Our first Baron Strucker had two inaccurate looks in one pack and no even batted an eye. Our umpteen millionth Wolverine however...

Character fatigue?

To put it mildly.

Those are beautiful, and I agree with everything you said.

Hey, I love Inferno. They just haven't revisited it lately. Curious who would be in a set: Goblin Queen, N'astirh, Magik... S'Ym? Tattered Storm? Demonic X-Men? X-Factor? It's been a while for me, too.

Still more to come for this year, we may surprise you.

Perhaps broke gogo dancer Goblin Prince Havok?

And put me down as someone who very much hopes that we one day see a Goblin Queen minimate.

I would love a Goblin Queen with the Goblin Princess for the win!

That settles it. We need TWO Inferno box sets.

I silently thank Luke for making me that Goblyn Queen custom, since it completes my Outback team in such a perfect way. Now I need that Walking Dead Infant and it'll be finished.

Post a picture, so I can be extremely jealous.

Damn, that's nice. Thanks.

Oh hell yeah, scratch my original line up. This is who needs to be in the Inferno box set:

Goblin Queen with baby Nathan

Magic with parts for Darkchylde

Havok in tattered clothes

N'astirh

To quote one of our members here - HOT SEX!

The only MLF I'd love to have is Stryfe. The rest is rest and there's the Brotherhood Minimates which I think would be nicer... Imagine Mastermind... Toad... Pyro... Avalanche... to name a few.

There would be hell to pay if we got the MLF before we got the Brotherhood. Sign me up for a Stryfe though.

These four sound good. Just make sure Magik can transform into Darkchylde and include a baby Nathan (this is a MUST, reusing the Walking Dead baby). If you had to, you could drop N'astirh or S'ym for an updated Sinister, not saying Sinister needs an update.

Damn, I want this set REAL BAD.

If we never get a Goblin Queen mate, it will be a damn shame.
